I was in a house fire in Oct 2005 and was in a coma in UC Davis in Sacramento Ca. I didn't remember but when I finally got out my husband showed me a beautiful qult that was made and donated by a group of quilters for the fire dept. I cherish it to this day and thank God they gave it to me. It takes me a little longer to crochet now with the burns I got on my left hand but im getting there slowly but surely. Cecilia <em><strong>Cecilia, you have a big heart! I'm so sorry to hear about your misfortunes! But, don't you think that those traumas we suffer sometimes make as stronger mentally? I will be delighted to take any squares you can make, so don't push yourself. Thank you for your interest in helping us out with this project! I look forward to seeing the squares.~skt</strong></em> I will definately get going making grannie squares, what a wonderful idea.

Cecilia, you have a big heart! I’m so sorry to hear about your misfortunes! But, don’t you think that those traumas we suffer sometimes make as stronger mentally? I will be delighted to take any squares you can make, so don’t push yourself. Thank you for your interest in helping us out with this project! I look forward to seeing the squares.~skt

This is the first mention I've ever seen about The Colony. My family and I lived in The Colony in the late 1980s. We loved it there, though I imagine it's much changed now. When we moved there, all of our friends were scared we had joined a cult. The Colony sounded cult-like to them. <em><strong>The Colony is sooo far from being a cult :lol: You wouldn't recognize it these days!~skt</strong></em> It’s really neat to see some of the squares coming together.

I hope that when I get moved, I can be a part of making some of those afghans! <em><strong>You bet you can help put them together! I started to ask if you'd like to do so now, and then remembered that impending move. Soon as you get that done, let me know and we can meet up and finish an afghan while we chatter and eat.

Maybe happier as my brain isn't turning into mush..well not too much. Those pics are great...and look at that 12 year old, wow! So many squares and whole afghans donated - I'm impressed Shelly!
